I'm not sure why this was the first name that came to my mind. Avaricta, Gitaxian Researcher
e.g., not i.e.
Gulistan, Simic biomancer as mentioned on Adaptive Snapjaw.
Frog Prince, the frog from Turn to Frog
Hans, Lhurgoyf Hunter as featured with Saffi Eriksdottir on Lhurgoyf
Gor Muldrack, Cryptohistorian as featured on Amphin Cutthroat
I created Taigam, Ambitious Master, whom Wizards treated like Gisa and Geralf.
I want to make one for Julius Caesar :)
Oh, heh. I just happened to glance at Challenge # 127, and realized that a number of cards in Homelands Restored either do fit this description, or will. Right now I've got Murat, Death Speaker, Kakra, Sea Troll, Zeki, Reef Pirate, Halina, Dwarven Trader and Serra and Feroz. Baris, Serra Inquisitor too, technically, but I plan on changing him. In fact, I don't think I'm sold on any of these as they stand. They're all subject to change.
Looking at my list of 'to do', I also have 'Baki, Wizard Attendant', 'Daria', 'Taysir', 'Devin, Faerie Noble' and 'Joskun, An-Havva Constable'. Homelands sure had a lot of unrepresented names in the flavor text...
I made Sarlena, Paladin of the Northern Verge.
I made Taigam, Sidisi's Hand. As a bonus, he fulfills the requirements for a Sultai commander for Tiny Leaders!
Prowess may seem odd for a Sultai card, but I thought it made sense from a flavor standpoint (since he used to be a member of the Jeskai clan), and I made it synergize with delve cards. The only downside is that almost no cards with delve are playable in Tiny Leaders! (There are, however, still ways to take advantage of the ability.)
Here's Von Yomm, Arbor Keeper, from the Future Sight printing of Dryad Arbor! Never did see a legendary that synergized with manlands.
